Vidya Balan

Vidya Balan always begins the new year with a bang. Her birthday is on January 1. The actress will celebrate her big day with her near and dear ones. As it is a landmark year, we can safely assume the 41-year-old will be party-hearty. She loves hosting theme-based bashes.

Last year, she had a retro night. The bash was organised at her office in Bandra, Mumbai. The themed party was attended by her family and close friends including her parents, husband Sidharth Roy Kapur, Aditya Roy Kapur and Manav Kaul. This was how everyone was dressed at the bash:

For her 39th, it was a madhatters ball, where guests were asked to don elaborate headgears. Vidya is known to celebrate her special day with her close friends and family. The National Award-Winning actress simply lives by the mantra - 'No matter how busy you are, you are never too busy for family'.

So what's lined up this time, Vids?
